Spencer Sanders Named MVP of USA U-19 Team Win Over Canada

The USA U-19 team knocked off Canada on Friday night 47-7 thanks to some massive contributions from future Cowboy QB Spencer Sanders and defensive end Tyler Lacy.

Lacy, a 2018 signee from Sachse, put Canada way behind the chains early off the edge with a nice sack that blew up a screen action. Even more impressive was his sack celebration. Hope he brings that one to Stillwater.

Sanders (you’ll never believe this), stole the show. He was named MVP of the game after tossing for 181 yards on 13 of 20 passing.

“People put their lives on the line,” Sanders said. “All I had to do was play football. So it’s more than an honor. This was for the country.”
